Summary
Donald Trump, the president-elect and convicted felon, has escalated his legal attacks on media outlets critical of him, sparking fears for press freedom under his second term.
His lawyer recently demanded $10 billion in damages from The New York Times and Penguin Random House over alleged “defamatory” content.
Similar lawsuits target the Daily Beast, CBS News, and others, accusing them of “malicious” reporting and election interference.
Media groups and watchdogs, including the Committee to Protect Journalists and Reporters Without Borders, warn these actions threaten press freedom and the public’s right to information.
Doesn’t suing for damages mean you have to prove damages? The fucker just got reelected president, what damages did he succumb to?
It would if our legal system wasn’t a sham. Unfortunately basically every “rule” it has is snapped off at the base from the lightest breath of a wealthy Pearson.
Trump is a shit throwing champ. His shit is so noxious it sticks to and destroys almost anything it touches. Even if you make it away without being completely Broken down it sticks with you like the stank of the Bog of the Eternal Stench!!!
He’s throwing shit cause now he can start throwing shit again at the media being shills and hurting everything to ruin trust in the words spoken and ideas passed … since now the platform is no longer helpful in his victory.
